let's get to work. the fourth of july, the united states celebrating its 237th independence day and the birth of democracy, the statue of liberty standing as a symbol of freedom. >> tonight of course fireworks will light up the skies but as this country celebrates another country struggles with a difficult transition to democracy. >> we are of course talking about egypt, fireworks also lighting up the skies and tonight a democratically elected president is out, a new president is in, the country's future uncertain. >> hello, everyone, i am

fredricka whitfield. >> and we would like to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. political uncertainty gripping egypt after the kpreert series of events yesterday. the question in cairo, a day after the military koup, now what. >> the head of the country's supreme constitutional court was sworn in as the interim president today after the military deposed president mohamed morsi. according to morsi's muslim brotherhood he is under house arrest now. >> ian lee is in cairo at the moment. let's start off with what's happening. the crowds dwindled away to pretty much nothing compared to yesterday. a lot happening. a crackdown of sorts, all kinds of the muslim brotherhood being rounded up. bring us up to date. >> reporter: a lot has happened today. like you just said, we have seen a roundup of the muslim brotherhood members and we're hearing from state news agency

300 people have been rounded up. also former president mohamed morsi is under house arrest and one of the arrests includes the supreme guide of the muslim brotherhood, their top person, so it is quite a wide range, round up. earlier today we also had the new president sworn in. he is now tasked with forming a government of tech-nocrats to really fix the problems and really what brought people into the streets. also he is tasked with writing a constitution or getting a committee together to write a constitution as well as overseeing the next round of presidential elections. he will be a busy man in the months to come. today definitely a big day with all of that going on, the swearing in of a new president and also the crackdown on the muslim brotherhood. >> this is fredrika i am wondering this interim president, what is it about him, what can he do differently that morsi couldn't or wouldn't?

>> he has some benefits that morsi didn't have. first of all, he has the army behind him. he was selected by the army to come in and rule as interim president and that's a big thing. he also has the ministry of interior, and that is the ministry in charge of policing the country. that's another big ministry to have on his side. he also has from the support of the coptic pope, or the christian church here in egypt and the head of the ashar, the leading school of sunni islam in the world so he does have a lot of support going into the new job and does need to tackle the security problem. there is a security crisis in egypt. they need to get the police back in the streets and there is also an economic crisis and he needs to turn around this economy and really give it a jump start to people feel the benefits quickly. >> and in all likelihood he is

really not going to be the one to do t he is really a place holder by all accounts until there are elections speaking of which the timetable is all important here, the last time the military stepped in, hosni mubarak went out and they hung around way too long and way too gong to get to elections. what sense of urgency is there they will move to an election process in the very near future and if they're arresting all the muslim brotherhood where is the inclusiveness. >> that's exactly right. starting with the muslim brotherhood they're going to have to be inclusive eventually. the muslim brotherhood still is a significant part of society. you cannot marginalize a section of society. you have to be inclusive. there is going to be have to be a dialog between the two sides to get the muslim brotherhood back in place. what's different between this transitional period and the one we saw before is that the military quickly handed overpower to a civilian that he would lead the transitional period. that is a big step because he will have support not from many

different sections of society, he is also talking to the opposition, the last time we saw transitional period it really was the army ruling by itself, but this guy will have to get a consensus from a lot of different areas which will be a lot more inclusive, albeit they do need to include the muslim brotherhood eventually. >> thanks so much. much quieter in tahrir square are today. >> good news at least for now. the new interim president takes over during this time of chaos and transition. a bit are month of a description about him, he is considered to be rather low key, and rather low profile, but today he is the leader of the world's most populous arab country. >> he is for now. you probably haven't heard of this guy, not a lot of people have if you are outside of egypt. he was born in cairo, attended law school at a local university and studied in paris and he was appointed to the egyptian supreme constitutional court, actually by the deposed

president hosni mubarak back in 1992. >> he was appointed head of the court by morsi, and he took the position just two days ago. mansour is 67 years old, married, three children, and viewed as an independent. >> how long he stays there, who knows. the koup, a political mine field for the administration. a lot of people thought they were flat floooted and now it ia no-win situation how they handle this. >> trying to handle this as delicately as possible. president obama says he is deeply concerned about the military toppling morsi but he is choosing his words carefully. athena jones at the white house with more on the diplomatic dilemma facing the administration. athena, the president did not use the word coup. why is that? >> good afternoon. that's right.

the fact the white house isn't using the word coup is probably one of the most significant things to come out of the statement. most people look at this and say this is clear a could you please, tplease coup so why aren't they using the word? the shorter answer is it is political reasons. they say in the event of a military coup, aid to a country like egypt, we're talking $1.5 billion a year in aid in this case must be cut off. there are cav rat that is say maybe the secretary of state could declare it in the national security interests of the united states but it is complicated. right now the white house is very careful using very carefully worded statements and avoiding the use of that one word coup. >> and also when you look at the u.s. and what let's face it waning influence in the region generally, they have to be careful what they say and about whom, don't they? they have that $1.5 billion a year in aid to the egyptian

military. that's a deep stick. they don't want to be seen to overtly wielding it. >> certainly. the point is as you mentioned egypt is a key ally to the u.s. in the region, the biggest country in the arab world and it is important for many reasons. talk about the suez canal, an important passage way for the oil trade. of course the peace treaty egypt has with israel. these are things the u.s. has interest in maintaining and promoting in addition to promoting democracy and economic development. they have been really careful, the president was asked about egypt during his trip to africa and he said over and over again that it is up to egyptians to determine their future. they really emphasize the democratic process here and so that's what they're continuing to try to do and they are of course closely monitoring the situation as we all are. michael. >> a thee thanks so much. appreciate that. >> if you want more on president obama's choice of words and want to read it for yourself head on over to cnn.com and next hour

we're talk about the point of view and the words choice chosen. >> what's in a word. when it is coup, a lot. >> a lot indeed. regardless of what the white house or anyone else wants to call it, what happened in egypt was indeed a coup. >> it make it is that mine field for the white house. they're promoting democracy and here you are with a democratic government being thrown out. egypt facing the instability that coups can inherently bring. keep this in mind, this is egypt's second revolution in two years, the country's powerful military took control both times and the first time around hosni mubarak, he was arrested back in 2011, and of course yesterday the military putting president morsi under house arrest, and we have fareed joining us from new york. i want to ask you this. in the broader regional aspect, you have an islamist government

elect there had and everybody trying to get islamists into the democratic process and go down the electoral road. when you get a government in for 12 months and thrown out like this and pretty much nobody doing anything about that, what message does that send to the extreme elements of muslim brotherhood? that didn't work out, did it? >> you have raised the most dangerous aspect of what's happened here. remember, the muslim brotherhood is the largest islamic political party in the arab world and there are lots of them. they exist in muslim brotherhood in many cases called as such in jordan and in syria and in tunisia and morocco and all of these parties, these movements, are going to ask the question you are asking. remember, for them to get involved in democratic politics was something of a stretch. many of these groups have within them people who believe in the restitution of a call fate and all kinds of things and they have chosen mainstream

democratic politics. it hasn't worked out so well in egypt. in many cases for their own faults but that's not how they read it. it is very important as you were talking to ian about this earlier, it is very important that the muslim brotherhood be included in any further democratic process because otherwise you will have groups that will come up and say we have tried this democracy thing and it didn't work out so well and we'll go underground and go violent and that will be very unstable, not just for egypt but for the whole region. the parties exist throughout the arab world. >> the opposition is shown that it can indeed get an awful lot of people into the streets like we saw in tahrir square, but how do we know whether it is representative of the masses? is this what most egyptians wanted to see? >> this is the most difficult question to answer because you had -- we have a system by which you figure out what the majority wants. it is called elections.

what we saw over the last few weeks was incredibly impressive display of popular anger toward president morsi and the muslim brotherhood but another way of describing it would be mob rule, right, where you just come out on the streets and protest. now, i think that the president morsi and the muslim brotherhood massively over played their hand. they acted in ways that were arbitrary, even unconstitutional, and it did trigger this mass revolt. it is very unfortunate it took the form of this street protest rather than some kind of regular electoral process which is why again the sooner we can get back to some regular electoral process and writing of a new constitution, the more this will be seen as a move to restore genuine democracy rather than a deviation from it. >> and to that point, i mean, the muslim brotherhood as we were talking to ian about the arrests and including the spiritual leader taken into

custody, that doesn't go well for inclusiveness and the muslim brotherhood regard lz remains the most powerful political group in the country and the opposition as it showed last time around during the election process was terribly disorganized. any indication are you hearing that they can get their act together to the point where there is an election and they go up with one candidate who is going to represent the secular liberal side of the society? >> not yet. you raise a crucial point. the opposition, the liberals, the moderates, actually quite well represented by which i mean to say lots of people voted for them. if you looked at the first round, more people voted for secular or liberal candidates than for the islamic candidates. the vote got divided. so what these guys have to do is come together. it does seem that morsi and the muslim brotherhood in power galvanized the opposition, and it did create a unified opposition, but as we all know in politics, it is easy to be against something.

now you have to be for something else. so can these groups come together and be for a single moderate candidate? so far they haven't been able to do that, but that should really be their principle preoccupation right now. can they find somebody they can unify around so that that person can be there and they can have a positive agenda rather than simply the negative one of bringing down morsi? >> and the cold hard light of day harsh realities facing egyptians. fareed, thanks so much. always good to have you on and get your analysis. >> all right. this is what else we're working on for this hour around the world. edward snowden, remember that name? he is believed to still be staying somewhere in the moscow airport. why hasn't anyone seen him there? we'll take you inside the airport and show you some of the places where he could be hiding. >> also, from the president of the united states to retirement, what is lifelike for george w. bush. we asked him if he misses the

oval office, and what he does in his spare time. >> everyone is waiting for the royal baby to arrive. hurry up already. will it have dark hair like katherine or strawberry blonde like prince harry? >> if it is correct, 6%. >> about a 6% chance they will have a red head. >> if you put money on it, you might want to think about that.

katherine or strawberry blonde for fast relief of itchy summer skin, get cortizone 10 cooling relief gel. katherine or strawberry blonde cortizone 10 cooling relief gel. you have seen these things in spy movies. they too really exist. they bugged apparently an embassy in london with a tiny microphone. >> guess which one. >> there you go. >> exactly. >> i wonder why.

the country's morn minister, ecuador, says they found a small listening device squirrelled away inside an electrical outlet panel somewhere in a bookshelf. >> a good place to put it or in the lamp, that's normally it. >> not surprisingly ecuador would like the british to help them find out who put there and how they did it. they think the microphone had been in place for several weeks. ecuador of course getting a lot of diplomatic attention these days. remember the wikileaks founder julian a sang has been living at the embassy in london for a year now. >> can't believe it has been that long. also intelligence leaker edward snowden, well, he asked the ecuador an country for asylum. >> has indeed. how much is the u.s. government secretly listening to what is going on with the european allies? the eu officials would like to know, especially now that the huge free trade talks are about to begin getween the european u

and the united states. >> they spoke by phone in the last few hours mainly about allegations in the u.s. the u.s. is actively spying in europe and some european officials want to delay trade talks until the spying allegations are addressed. >> the president of bolivia back home again, but not happy. ava morales blaming the united states for turning his return flight from russia into an unscheduled zigzag through european air space, delayed more than 14 hours in all. >> rumors spread that intelligence leaker edward snowden was on board the president's plane. turns out he wasn't. they accuse the u.s. of trying to throw its weight around. >> translator: i feel it is an open provocation to the continent, not only to the president, and american imperialism is trying to intimidate us. what i want to say is they will never intimidate us and they

will never scare us because we have dignity and we are sovereign. >> this is not over now that president morales is home and several south american leaders will meet today to talk about the incident when morales' plane was not allowed into several european country's air space. >> brazil's president for example says that all nations involved have some explaining to do. now, of course, all of that fuss over the plane was about the nsa intelligence leaker edward snowden as we said. somebody it seems was pretty sure that snowden had hitched a ride on the president's plane. >> as far as we know, snowden is still at the moscow international airport where he has been now for 12 days. karl pennhall went to the airport looking for snowden or at least to see the place he is reportedly calling home. >> this is the view that may have flashed in front of snow

den just after touchdown. through passport control even though by then u.s. officials revoked his travel documents and perhaps he would have put the four laptops he was reportedly carrying through a scanner. what really happened next is a puzzle more complex than any in these airport magazines. there is no isolated transit lounge. like all other international passengers the leaker would have had free run to terminals d, e and f. that's a maze of tax free and coffee shops close to three quarters of a mile long and more than 50 departure gates bustling with travellers and even show it would be tough for one of america's most wanted men to stay hidden in plain sight. we checked a handful of more private, vip and first class lounges. no sign. has he perhaps dawned a classic spy disguise, dark glasses and a

russian hat? maybe even a t-shirt tribute to the first man in space. if snowden needs a stiff drink to steady his nerves on the lam, what better than a dram of this, a taste of what could be the next stop on his odyssey? the scandal snowden generated seems like a throwback to the cold war accide, every bit like mementos on sale, and so far president obama is floundering in efforts to hunt him down and bring him down. >> clearly it is the morning and passengers thinned out. the question is if snowden is not in this sprawling airport departure area, has someone simply let him slip out of one of many side doors like this? >> the search continues. >> it does. >> and the mystery intensifies. >> if he is there, he must be pretty bored by now. let's talk about the royal family because everyone likes

to. the royal bump keeping a lot of people guessing. everyone wants to know what it is going to be. is it going to be a king or queen. >> uh-huh. >> brunette or red or strawberry blonde or something? all of those details, people are just coming up with all kinds of interesting little scenarios. more on that next. eekly ads to get the best sale prices? i do! do you think you can get the same great prices all in one place with walmart's low price guarantee? let's see. ok. every bbq's got to have... chips! walmart's always working to lower costs so you get more savings. hot dogs! you're going to knock it out of the park. you found a lower advertised price but walmart will match that right at the register. that's cool! you don't even need the ad with you! ready? wow! that's the walmart low price guarantee backed by ad match. save time and money this july 4th, bring in ads from your local stores and see for yourself.

the royal couple with expecting a body. who knew? it is due any day. >> what is it going to look

like, boy, girl, prince, princess. elizabeth cohen met with a gentlemen net cyst to find out. >> he was an adorable little boy and she a beautiful girl, but what will william and katherine's royal baby look like? >> eye good looking child, i presume. >> i think everyone is hoping the baby won't have his ears. >> i hope it takes after her. she is so beautiful. >> it seemed fittingly british to discuss the genetic fate of the future king or queen of england over high tea. let's start with the baby's hair. light like dad, dark like mom or maybe red like uncle harry? >> there are two of the five times two over three times a quarter which is approximately if my math is correct 6%. >> about a 6% chance they will have a red head. >> if you're going to put money on it, you might want to think about that. >> he says the baby's hair will likely be on the darker side since dark jeans are dominant and then there is the eyes.

>> she is is grown and he is so blue. >> it would be unusual less likely that the child would have pure blue eyes. >> like daddy. >> exactly. >> he says most likely the baby's eyes will be more towards the green side like katherine since green is dominant. and as for height. >> they're both tall people. >> that's one of the characteristics. they're tall. >> generthey say a new prince al as 6'7". of course science can't predict everything. >> that's the fun. you don't know what you will get. >> it is a question mark. >> part of the surprise. >> i like that. >> hey, we're back. >> we know they're going to have a happy baby. >> yes. to heck what it looks like. >> good looking, two, how could they not have a good looking? >> this guy reckons more like kate. >> coloring wise because she is darker than him and darker is

more dominant and he is commenting this is a great thing. this is the first time since the 17th century you have had commoner genes introduced. they said this is good. freshen up the gene pool. for the health of the baby it is great to have this broad spectrum of genes. >> are people fascinated about the guessing game? it is really lovely that they're keeping it a secret. >> it is. it is. >> even if they know. >> the gender. >> even they don't know what the baby will look like. it could be even if they know which they apparently say they don't. they're keeping it a secret. i think americans and brits, this baby is the future king or queen of england. >> i have to say, as a foreigner living in this country, i think americans are far more interested in the royal family. >> that may be true. >> we have some of that when we were there. they say i didn't know she was pregnant, i didn't believe them, but they want to seem a bit above it all. we were so curious that we asked the graphic artist at turner studios to come up with photos

of what the baby will look like as a young adult. >> let's see. >> they took what they said and came up with this and used composite software. this is what the future prince or princess. we think ryan seacrest a little bit. >> oh, my goodness. >> this is what they could look like. >> they have white teeth. >> they do. that's lovely. >> interesting. this is fun. >> how can they go wrong? >> it is going to be a lovely thing no matter what, it is going to be a nice little baby. thanks so much. appreciate that. >> i shake my head. >> you're going to be into it as soon as the baby drops, suddenly you will be front and center. >> huh-uh. >> i want to see pictures. >> all right. yeah. not happening. sorry. >> we'll see. >> elizabeth, good to see you. the coup in egypt knocked the muslim brotherhood after its pedestal. does it have a future? we'll hear from a senior adviser coming up.

george zimmerman's trial may take an emotional turn when the court resumes. they're in recess for the july 4th holiday here in the united states. tomorrow trayvon martin's mother and brother could be called to testify about whose voice is on a 911 tape. >> the person is heard yelling for help during that fatal fight between zimmerman and martin. the screams are considered crucial evidence because they could determine who the aggressor was in that fight. >> yesterday the jury saw what has become something of a symbol of this tragedy, the hoodie worn by martin on the night he was killed. jurors got a close look at the gun zimmerman used to shoot the unarmed teenager, and of course for our international viewers we have been covering this story a bit, too, but massively covered here in the united states. >> it is, and the prosecution

likely to rest soon and the defense picking up. it will be interesting to see whether the defense calls witnesses or if they rest. meantime, it is a soggy fourth of july for millions of americans and it is impressively hot for others. >> it is indeed. it is certainly soggy here. rain drenching the southeast where flash floods are possible again today. the ohio river valley also has a risk of flooding. >> meanwhile there is more extreme heat in the southwest, cities in california, nevada and arizona topped 120 degrees in the past few days and folks doing all they can to keep cool. >> that is hot. >> half a world away egypt's democracy in turmoil. >> a popular uprising resulted in a military overthrow of the country's freely elected president and a new leader was installed, at least an interim one. >> yes, see how long he is there. the ousted president and many of his muslim brotherhood leaders

now under arrest. they're being rounded up at the moment including the spiritual leader. this after just a year in power. the muslim brotherhood is outraged over this coup. i spoke earlier with a senior adviser to the group. >> i don't know how the rest of the world is watching this and letting it slip by. the voice of the people has been derailed by its own military -- that took up a political position to side with a certain faction and remove a democratically elected president in egypt. i can't believe in one year we managed to resurge back the military inside egypt. >> how do you think the muslim brotherhood supporters are going to react to what has happened? there have been calls for calm and there are those who have been speaking of taking somewhat darker action.

>> no violent action at all. we're sticking to peaceful means and peaceful mechanisms. we're an organization committed to a peaceful nature and we are committed to non-violent roots of containing the mechanism of how this country is governing. we're not going to let this country die again into a administrative dictatorship. >> you have it there. speaking earlier saying that the brotherhood of the ors at least promising to retain the peaceful statute throughout all of this political turmoil although we have been hearing from fareed and others there is fear that other more radical elements may not be quite so peaceful. >> if there was uncertainty after the arab spring, there is certainly uncertainty now. the country right now is clearly in a tug of war between islamists and secular groups. >> morsi of course has become increasingly unpopular, the grassroots level because critics say he failed to live up to his promises and also installing an

authoritarian monopolis particular regime if you like. the director of human rights watch in egypt joins us from cairo. you know, when you talk about human rights, whether you like the muslim brotherhood or not, you must be concerned what we're hearing about mass arrests of muslim brotherhood members and other things you are seeing in egypt. doesn't go well for inclusive democracy going forward. >> absolutely. i think that's the most disturbing thing that has happened in the last few hours. obviously since the announcement of a coup by the military and in his speech yesterday the minister of defense said the process going forward had to be inclusive and yet the first thing we saw was three television stations, one of which belongs to the muslim brothered hoo were taken off the air and over that earring auto the arrests started, so the head of the freedom of justice party was taken from his home and slowly trying to put together the list of people that have

been arrested so far with news of an arrest warrant for other muslim brotherhood members out there. clearly a violation of human rights and honestly bringing us back to the pre2011 mubarak era. >> how do you classify this? what do you call it? do you classify this as the ultimate we trail by this military leadership? >> the ministry is always active in its own interests. what it did on february 11th, in 2011, was intervened a military coup to get rid of mubarak and ruled for a year-and-a-half and this time on back of the mass protests on june 30th the process through intervening which they're then trying diploze so of course it is a coup. >> on the grassroots street level you're concerned about the law and order issue and even in

the protests in tahrir square, an enormous number of assaults going on. >> horrific sexual assaults. this has been a long-term problem in egypt, sexual violence in general and in particular over the last two years in tahrir square behind me a spike in the number of sexual assault cases. this is the worst week we have ever seen in egypt, over 169 women have been attacked and sexually assaulted by mobs and i think been around seven gang rapes cases so far, so horrific levels and a government that failed to deal with it. >> thank you so much for joining us. be safe. >> from president of the united states to painter. the first painter perhaps. after five years former president george w. bush is stepping back into the spotlight with a paint brush. >> or we step into his. he tells us what he has been up to since leaving the oval office.

he is trying to be low key. >> at home in texas he spends much of his time painting portraiting and landscapes. >> they're pretty good. >> thank you. when you paint by numbers, it is not that hard. etworks," "with safe, experienced drivers." "we work directly with manufacturers," "eliminating costly markups," "and buy directly from local farmers in every region of the country."

the south african government says nelson mandela remains in

critical but stable condition after almost four weeks now in the hospital. >> this latest update coming after president jacob zuma visited the antiapartheid hero and his eldest daughter says the 94-year-old is breathing with the aid of life support. >> he is receiving treatment for a recurring lung infection that has been a problem ever since he spent 27 years in prison for fighting apartheid. >> and the former president of the united states george w. bush managed to stay pretty much out of the limelight for five years now. >> it has been his choice. >> it has. >> robin caught up with him in zambia while he was painting a health clinic there. >> it is an awesome experience being here. >> george w. bush says he doesn't miss presidential life. >> happy here in rural africa fixing up this simple clinic. >> really good for you.

>> in the midst, first of all, i come from a privilegedes land, and a land of plenty, and so when we come to a place where there is deprivation to see such joy, it is a reminder the human condition can be full of great spirit. >> for five years he says he made a conscious effort to stay out of the limelight. few speeches, no conferences, and no criticism of his successor. >> it is difficult. a former president doesn't need to make it harder as far as i am concerned. other presidents have taken different decisions. that's mine. >> slowly he says he is emerging from tension to women's health issues, a continent away. >> we did one of these last year, and there are a lot of them. a lot. it is very special. they kept coming. >> it wasn't just that one day. >> no. >> some local said, okay, president bush, mrs. bush, make sure you show up.

okay. there is a need. >> president bush says when he is at home in texas he spends much of his time painting portraits and landscapes. >> they were pretty good. >> thank you. you know, when you paint by numbers, it is not that hard. >> here in zambia it is the clinic walls getting a fresh coat. >> in a way it is quite spiritual, isn't it, when you know such good work is going to be done in this tiny little building. >> we view it as a mission of mercy. it is not our mercy. when you say spiritual, i agree with you. our motivation is to help save lives. >> his current project builds on patfar, a program that provide to those in africa. >> thousands were dying and the world wasn't responding, and so i guess i am kind of an

impatient guy. >> from an impatient president of a privileged land, now a volunteer still with steely eyed focus as he tries to find meaning away from the oval office. robin curnow, cnn, livingston, zambia. >> the egyptian military removing the country's president from power. >> indeed. and bringing in an interim leader. up next we'll look at the military's role in egypt's uncertain future.

all right. again, americans are celebrating the fourth of july and two u.s. senators are spending the fourth in afghanistan. we're talking about senator john mccain and lindsey graham. it is one of those unannounced visits kept quiet for security purposes of course. >> the old unannounced visit. we heard that a lot in iraq and afghanistan. the senator ds meet with afghan

president hamid karzai and both members of the senate armed services committee, all international combat troops, scheduled to be out of afghanistan by the end of next year. >> and then police are investigating the disappearance of british toddler madeleine mccann. remember her? they say they identified 38 people of interest. >> 38. i know this broke an hour or two ago. mccann disappeared while her family was on vacation in portugal six years ago. the u.k. officers have spent the past two years reviewing the initial investigations and say they came across new witness evidence. >> the lead detective says police continue to believe there is a possibility mccann is alive. egypt's military has dominated the country for decades, the most powerful group and today exercising again that power. in cairo some praise and some criticism of the coup that toppled president mohamed morsi. >> the military has laid out air
